Kinderviews: March Edition

Well, as I was thinking today as my little one was off at school, being an angel, no doubt, I thought how fun it might be to kind of "interview" him, if you will. See what his favorite things are this month, what's the haps, is broccoli really his favorite food? You know, digging deep, real investigative journalism kind of stuff. And, well, so mommy can have a running record of how he changes each month, but that is besides the point. So without further ado, I present to you, my new monthly series, Kinderviews With Syrus V.Mind you, I did not alter the answers in anyway.

Mom:Thank you for sitting with me. For the record, can you please state your full name for me?
